However, the use of accurate equivalent uniform moment factors can restore uniformity in notional reliability level.
In the model, the strength and ductility of confined concrete are defined as a function of the equivalent uniform lateral confining pressure ( sigma_{le} ), and the tensile stress of concrete is ignored (Eq. (1)).
Furthermore, simulation of the full 3D domain allowed to identify forces time-histories and loading directions acting on a circular cylinder, with definition of an equivalent uniform velocity to characterize the flow impinging on the obstacle.
The study was designed to propose a novel concept of biologically effective equivalent uniform dose to calculate tumor control probability for HDR implants.
The successes of Niemierko's EUD in fitting clinical data also support the validation of the above equivalent uniform radio sensitivity model.
It is historical sites and great architectural monuments, they say, that distinguish the city from Calvino's thinly veiled failure of a suburb or its urban equivalent: uniform blocks of straight-edged towers like the building that replaced Pennsylvania Station, that neoclassical martyr to their cause.
The second-order effects on columns in braced frames are functions of the larger end moment (M2) in addition to the following parameters: effective length factor (K); effective flexural stiffness of the column (EI); equivalent uniform bending moment diagram factor (C m ); applied axial load (P u ); and sustained load factor (β d ), which is neglected for short-term loads.
An economic analysis procedure, also called life cycle cost analysis, compares M&R alternatives using present worth (for equal analysis periods of alternatives: Eq. (5)) or equivalent uniform cost (for varying analysis periods of alternatives).
To validate an in-house optimization program that uses adaptive simulated annealing (ASA) and gradient descent (GD) algorithms and investigate features of physical dose and generalized equivalent uniform dose (gEUD based objective functions in high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy for cervical cancer.
We name this variant of RT model as an equivalent uniform radio sensitivity model, as it utilizes a cornerstone in RT – the Niemierko's EUD and other techniques [ 9, 10].
